Frequently asked questions about wing mirror replacement & repairs in Spalding
Read our answers to questions about wing mirror replacement costs, symptoms and more.
What does a wing mirror replacement in Spalding involve?
Having a working wing mirror on both the driver’s and passenger’s door has been a legal requirement since 2010, so you’re risking a fine of up to £2,500 and three penalty points added to your license. This is a clear example when a delay in getting your car fixed with a straightforward repair could easily cost you more than actually getting the work done.
When you are missing a wing mirror or the view is obstructed by a crack, you suddenly realise what a big blind spot this leaves you in your all-around vision from the driver’s seat. Having a missing or broken wing mirror makes it much harder to keep up with what is happening behind you, and potential hazards approaching you from the back - a fast-moving motorbike, for example.
For safety’s sake, you shouldn’t delay getting your wing mirror repaired when you know it’s needed.
What are the symptoms of a faulty wing mirror?
If you are unlucky the wing mirrors can get damaged. Either the mirror glass or the casing can break or get scratched. The glass mirrors itself are generally straight-forward to replace. In some cases, the mirror unit might be damaged beyond repair and would have to be replaced completely.
Electric mirror units can suffer more complicated issues seeing as they will have various electrical components that can fail. Components inside might seize, with the result that the wing mirror cannot move.
How long will a wing mirror replacement take in Spalding?
A wing mirror or door mirror replacement usually takes around 1 hour, but can take less or more time. Ultimately, the time that the job will take will depend on a number of factors, like your vehicle's make and model, year, as well as other factors. Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.
Is a broken wing mirror an MOT failure?
Yes, a broken, damaged or missing wing mirror will likely result in an MOT failure. Sometimes what may seem like a minor crack on the body of the wing mirror but no damage on the actual reflective mirror can still result in an MOT fail.
